This family dispute idea overriding the actual law is fascinating to me. It's like how assault laws don't apply in Russia if it's a man beating his wife. I'll have to look more into it, thanks as always for sharing

A real life knight in shining armor. There used to be some "troubled teen" camps in Utah where parents could lock up their kids but they would not dare touch a 21 years old. Police refusing to act for something this serious is crazy. Would they react the same if the girl ambushes her parents with a baseball bat?

I actually have no idea how it works out for a girl. I’ve never seen any girls try it. But if a grown ass man beats his parents, the police also do nothing about it. They’ll at most give you a stern lecture or something.
